Clear iSpot 4G hotspot discontinued

Only a few weeks ago Clear was offering its iDevice specific 4G hotspot at a discount for the holidays. The device normally sold for $99 and during the holiday special, you could pick it up for $20. At the time some may have wondered if the special deal was a hint that the thing wasn’t selling that well rather than just holiday cheer on Clear’s part.

Some users on the Clear forums are now reporting that they have been told that the iSpot has been discontinued. User darrelllynn wrote, “Clear today discontinued iSpot. In fact, most representatives were in the dark as of this afternoon. Did any of you hear differently?”

Later in the thread, a Clear rep chimed in and confirmed that after the current stock of iSpot devices are sold out in retail locations no more will be ordered. The thing that many owners wondered about is if the service would be continued. The rep said that the service would continue to be supported and that there were some of the iSpot devices held back to serve as warranty replacements if needed.
